For chains, SRAM 8 or 9 Speed works well. But if you want the lightest, I really like KMC x9sl.

Spacers: if you’re just trying this out and want to keep it cheap, PVC pipe works really well for spacers. I used it when getting into singlespeeding. Currently, I run Velosolo spacers.

Gearing: I always say start around 70 gear inches.

I should have an extra 16 or 17t cog. I think a Surly or King or something like that. PM me your address and I can get it sent your way.
Endless cogs.....now you've done it ;-)
